EFC Pie
by Anne Sealey

A long, long time ago
I can still remember how 
Will Boone used to make me smile
And I knew if he had his chance
That's he'd stop the Taelon's advance
And us Earthlings could be happy for a while
But the finale made me shiver
With the blast that Zo'or delivered
My world fell out of step
When Kevin Kilner left
I can't remember if I cried
When Judson Corr had killed his bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day that Will Boone died

So
[Chorus]
Bye-bye,  CVI
We'll always think about you
With a tear in our eye
Like the Flat Planet extras drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singing "Why did he have to die?
Why did he have to die?"

We'll miss him with a fan's love
Now that he's off to heaven above
'Cause TV Guide has told us so
Why exactly where did he go?
Does the Void now hold his mortal soul?
Why'd the news trickle out so slow?
No more opn'ing shots with him
Like in we  had all last season
The intro's now brand new
Just say this isn't true!
When Ha'gel's shots hit him like a truck
Why couldn't he have thought to duck?
But I knew I was out of luck
The day that Will Boone died
I started singin'

[Chorus]

Now for one episode we've been on our own
And Liam's already full grown
But that's not how it used to be
When it was Boone that Da'an would see
'Cause that's just how things should be
They formed a bridge for you and me
Oh, then while Quo'on was looking down
Rayna shot him to the ground
The fun'ral was adjourned
Our Boone wasn't returned
And while Doors' words were cold and sharp
Liam saved Da'an in the park
We posted memorials in the dark
The day that Will Boone died

[Chorus]

We waited through the summer swelter
Running to fanfics for shelter
The premiere was approaching fast
When we found "The Joining" was his last
They said Boone's time just had to  pass
To make more of an ensemble cast
The premiere came with growing gloom
At least they kept the opening tune
Now the story must advance
Was this Boone's last chance?
The supporting cast took to the field
With Boone's fate already sealed
Could all the truths now be revealed?
The day that Will Boone died

We were singing
[Chorus]

And we all watched with a sad face
Re-seeing his atoms float through space
And a new season about to begin
Zo'or, oh so devious and sick, shot him
With his shakarava lit like a candlestick
(We doubt even Sandoval's his friend)
And as that "Companion" took the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
Though not born of hell
He was evil, I could tell
And as the hour climbed to seven at night
I began my new Saturday rite
I saw Zo'or laughing with delight
The day that Will Boone died

He was singing
[Chorus]

I was a poster feeling blue
Waiting for some hopeful news
But Tribune had sent our Boone away
So I watched my tapes, more and more
Where Boone was alive the year before
But the effect, it wasn't just the same
And on the boards the posters screamed
Boone lovers cried, fanfic writers dreamed
'Bout Boone kind words were spoken
For the ensemble had been broken
The day the implant I admire most
William Boone, Condor's host
Was turned by Zo'or into a ghost
The day that Will Boone died

[Chorus]

Bye-bye,  CVI
We'll always think about you
With a tear in our eye
Like the Flat Planet extras drinkin whiskey and rye
Singing "Why did he have to die?
Why did he have to die?"

We all were singing
Bye-bye,  CVI
We'll always think about you
With a tear in our eye
Like the Flat Planet extras drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singing "Why did he have to die?
Why did he have to die?"
